Humber Aid
The Humber Aid vision is to shape communities for a better future.
Introducing Humber Aid – here to make a difference
Founded during 2019, Humber Aid has focused its resources on working hard within the Humber Region to provide relief to those in need. We are here for those who are wanting to make a positive difference in their communities.
We have a heritage and background of helping those in need, Humberside Fire & Rescue Service (HFRS) and community interest company HFR Solutions, share the vision of making the local region a safer place to live and work. By joining forces with these organisations, the charity’s aim is to further support the community.
HFR Solutions supports Humber Aid for the relief of those in need through such assistance as deemed appropriate. The Humber Aid vision is to shape communities for a better future.
Humber Aid supports a diverse group of communities, which include, but aren’t
limited to:
- The younger and older generations
- People suffering from ill-health, financial hardship
- Disadvantaged communities
- Charitable organisations
- Non-profit making community groups
How our support is delivered?
The projects we support are designed not only to make a difference in the lives of individuals but also to support local community groups, charities, and business. We are privileged and extremely proud of the community investment and projects we support, knowing our involvement helps to make a real difference to communities in the Humber region and beyond who welcome our support and need it.
This support can be delivered in many ways such as financial, training and the allocation of resource and time.
